One Egg for Ten,

One egg for ten is the pattern at the Cali,
fornia ostrich farm.
"One, two, three, four, five, six, seven,
eight, nine, ten," said Dwight Whiting,
counting the guests he had invited to spend
the day at the ostrich farm with him. ~
guess that one egg will be enoughn
Having given utterance to this expression,
he wended his way TO the paddock and soon
brought to the house an ostrich egg For
whole hour 1t was boiled, and, though there
was then some misgiving as to It's being
cooked, the shell was broken, for curiosity
could no longer be re'trained, aud three
pound hard boiled egg laid upon the plate.
But aside from its size there was nothing
peculiar about 1t, The white had the blush
tinge seen in the duck egg, aud the yolk
was OF the usual color II tasted as II
looked, like duck egg, and had no flavor
peculiar to itself, But It was immensel As
1t takes twenty.eight hens eggs to equal In
weight the ostrich egg which was cooked, 1t
Is evident that the host knew what he was
about In cooking only one. There was
enough, and to spare, and before leaving
the table, the party unanimously agreed
that ostrich egg was good,

| Suitable dress for riding has often been
mentioned. In brief, ordinary dress, dark
brown, gray, heather or blue homespun,
made with long pleats and a body; either
plain tailor. made coat habit body, or a
| Norfolk jacket-either is as good as the
other. AT present am using a Norfolk
jacket with very good results, but the sine
2un non is neatness. 1t Is pity some of
our leading tailors will not turn their atten-
ton to this branch. The composition OF Il
first rate rider attired by first rate tailor
Redfern, for instance-on one of the first
rate machines OF the day, would run a
Rotten Row equestrian rather close In the
race for appearance.
Those who begin riding now have not
anything like the trying time which the
lady riders OF five years ago had to put up
with. Tue public mind is getting educated
to the fact that trcycling for ladies' is not
an unseemly, fast, and utterly inexcusabe
pursuit. Many now ride who never before
could see the beauties Of country ten miles
from their doors. Unable to keep their
own carriage, and the journey by rail en-
failing endless trouble, they stayed IN or
only pottered about within radius OF some
six miles, The sooner the fact gets known
that tricyclist need not be the less a lady
because she rides on three wheels instead OF
driving pony chaise the better, Probably
more favorable opinions have been given by
doctors IN its favor than any other modern
mode OF lOcomotion, and there are many
rheumatic persons who bless the day the
tricycle. was invented.

GIVING MARY ANN A SHOW.
The Girl with the Red Feather Forced
to Yield to Another soprano.
LIIarper's Weekly.l

A young lady told me once of attending a
little Catholic church In the country near
where she was passing the summer. Being a
regular attendant at Il large city church OF
that faith, she was painfully conscious of the
ilorid and pretentious character Of
the music attempted by the ambitious
little choir, and of their abso-
lutte hopeless inability to perform
1t. The relation between the pastor and the
congregation was evidently OF the simplest
and most ineffective nature. In the "Gloria"
there occurred long and snowy soprano
solo, IN cheap imitation Of the cheap italian
style. The young woman who attempted It
sang gaily on till the clergyman evidently
thought that she had enjoyed her fair share
OF attention and glory. Accordingly he
raised his hand as a signal, and the music
ceased.
"Let that young girl with red feather
have done sngln', and let Mary Ann GUILTY
sing the rest" There was little hesitation
In the choir, and he resumed:
"rhe service will not go on till Mary Ann
has show.n
Accordingly Mary Ann took her innings
and the young girl with the red feather was
left nowhere.

Old "Tule Dad" a remarkable old noun.
tain man who early made name among the
hunters and Indian fighters OF the Serras,
crossed over to the golden shore about 10
days ago at jess Valley, Modoc county,
California. He had reached the great age
OF 103 wears, and died at last with miud

who were camped on the banks of the

RIGHT SMART NEBRASKA BOY.

Parent.

81 want to tell you little story about

farmer In the smoking car to the party of
drummers who had been telling him some
pretty tall yarns. "My boy Is a good deal
Of genius in his way, lemme tell you.
aud none of 'em gets ahead Of him I other
day he rugged up kite. 1t was the biggest
Kite I'd ever set eyes on. IL was about six
feet wide, an twice as long, an on the top
OF 1t my boy placed few green branches
which he'd cut from cut from cotton

Never you mind, dad says he: Il know

lie flew that kite up In the air an stood
watchin' OF 1t fer long tune, wnen | says
to him: You'd better pull that thing down
now, an get to your work. 'Lemme alone,
dad he replied, I'm git thar yet.' And,
by gosh, be did. The next time took a
look at him he was a.hauling In on the kite
line, with smile on his face as broad as
furrer. When the kite came down near the
ground saw what he was smilin' at, an
1t was enough to make body smile, too
Any you fellers want to guess what was
on that kite ?"
None OF the drummers wanted to guess,
and the old man continued his story:
"Wall, sir, a'sittin' on the top o. that kite
was eleven o. the purtiest wild geese ye
ever saw. Yes, sir, eleven on 'em. You
see, the geese was 1yin' north purity thick,
an my boy had got up this scheme to catch
'em. There amt mary trees out our way,
an after fat goose has been flynn purity

on when he built that kite. By offerin' the
geese place to stop an rest, an by
smearin' the top o. the kite with tar so
their feet would stick SO fast they couldn't
get away, he did the business. BY gosh !
but 1t was fun to pull them geese in. Just
as fast as we could send the kite up and
pull her down again we got from ten to a
dozen geese, an in four days we captured
six car loads, an Pm taken 'em to Chicago
